Try to load the VCE firmware at early_init. When the correct firmware is not found, return -ENOENT. This way, the driver initialization will complete even without VCE, and the GPU will be functional, albeit without video encoding capabilities. This is necessary because we are planning to add support for the VCE1, and AMD hasn't yet publised the correct firmware for this version. So we need to anticipate that users will try to boot amdgpu on SI GPUs without the correct VCE1 firmware present on their system.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
